#PhillyFive Things to Do: Nov. 1, 2014

Don’t be too bummed Halloween is over.

Don't be too bummed Halloween is over.

For a feat of strength: Work out, get burgers. The first-ever Shake Shack Tour de Shack takes bikers from the Center City Shake Shack (2000 Sansom St.) to the King of Prussia location and finally the University City Shake Shack (3200 Chestnut St.) for a 50-mile bike ride. The ride starts at 8:30 a.m. — heads up: the roads are open — and will feature a complimentary lunch afterwards.

For nature times: Halloween may be over, but it's still harvest season for Mt. Cuba Center (3120 Barley Mill Rd., Hockessin, Del.). From 10 a.m. to 4 p.m., the garden venue will hold hayrides, crafts and more for First Saturday.

For young music-makers: This free blues workshop at the Kimmel Center (Broad and Spruce Streets) will have three to five-year-olds interacting with musician Shakera Jones and getting in tune with the sounds of the blues. The one-hour session begins at 11 a.m.

For eco-fun: Learn the ins and outs of composting at Greensgrow Farms (2501 E. Cumberland St.) for two hours, starting at noon. Organic!

For an SNL-level performance: The soulful, brooding Hozier — who also happens to have an excellent head of hair — comes to the Trocadero Theatre (1003 Arch St.) tonight. With a number one Billboard top rock albums debut, we'll most definitely take the singer to church. The show starts at 7 p.m.
